Owner's Comments

The Philadelphia Mint struck more than 6.2 million Liberty double eagles in 1904, making the issue readily available in high grade and a popular choice with type collectors. This Plus-graded Gem displays razor-sharp definition on all design elements and the well-preserved orange-gold surfaces radiate vibrant mint luster, with outstanding eye appeal. CAC verified

Expert Comments

David Akers (1975/88)

The 1904 is by far the most common date in the Liberty Head Double Eagle series and it is also one of the commonest of all twenties along with the 1908 No Motto, 1924 and 1927. The 1904 is available in large quantities and a great many choice, gem and even superb examples exist.
